Dogs R great


had 2 very grumpy & comatose teenage boys cursing sheamus this morning 
because he had carried one of each of their sneakers, somewhere outside.
I love this dog.

Behind this door we have ....

a beautiful prom gown, 
a large pair of goalie pads, 
and a pick axe. 
Just another day in the life of our family.

How to make friends

because Seamus ran down the long stone driveway to greet them 
as they walked their dog by :          3

Mums the word

The game


When your 9 year old & 10 month old Puppy 
have a tug of war with your down comforter 
~ there are No Winners.

Hangover ?



OMG after a night of drinking I woke up in bed with 3 strangers ~
a short bald dude, a hairy white guy & a hairy black dude !!!
Ok it was one beer, my husband, Child # 4 & the great dane, but regardless,
IM awake and can't go back to sleep.

Packing Tips


FYI never say "oh thanks honey" and leave it at that
if your husband says I packed for you.
Going out to buy clothes that match and fit .

Prayers

Dear Lord
Thank you for the gift of my 3 wonderful boys.
Please help "your" gift to shut up and stop fighting with each other.
I know the return period has expired and I'm prepared to use duct tape.
Thank you. Amen

The name game

playing the name game yesterday ....
Child # 4, perhaps losing interest, says Testical Erestical.
Your turn brother .... it's a "y".   It's a silent Y, but you can hear a hint of it.
Although no one can verify the existence of Mr Yerestical, the game continued

Family bonding

Barely survived a very hilly bike ride with Child # 4 -
 may need to rethink this family bonding thing

Child # 3


Dear Child # 3  ~
I am very sorry for yelling at you for not looking hard enough for your sneaker before school this morning.
I just found it in the hosta by the bird bath.
Sheamus is now grounded.
Love Your Mother

Fast Fact 1

·       
     A Dyson will suck up 4.3 million teeny fish food morsels & one half of the plastic container they came in, before becoming clogged.
     In addition, holding your Dyson steady on one spot, while cursing vigorously, will effectively remove all fish food clumps cemented to your rug by dog slobber.

started Wednesday off by chasing Seamus down the street in my pajamas.
The day can only get better and Im sure the neighbors will eventually recover
